agapanthus danger

 

The weather continues to be mild up here and we are still in our shorts and t shirts. The mornings are cooler now though, so jerseys on for a while to start the day. It is raining today which is needed. It is just a gentle rain that will soak in nicely

Eddie went fishing just after 6 on Monday morning. I got a text for coffee at 8 30, so I took him down a cup. He caught a kahawai while I was there. We had snapper for tea on Saturday night. He is down at the beach this afternoon, to see what he can catch. He is wearing his wet suit and his raincoat, so he is prepared for the weather. 

Well it is only about 5 weeks to the shortest day. Whoop Whoop. The weather might get colder, but the days will be getting lighter and I like that.

I stuck a bit of a dried agapanthus stalk into my leg when I was gardening last Thursday and now I have a nasty hole in my leg. We went into the 7 days a week doctor on Sunday and got some antibiotics for it. I thought there was a little bit still in the wound and yesterday afternoon it came out, so I probably didn't need to go to the doctors after all, but better safe than sorry. Who knew agapanthus could be so dangerous.

The vege garden is going well. We are eating spinach, lettuces, cabbage, radishes and the carrots are nearly ready.
